Captivation Want Nothing But You Chapter 168 by Adolf Dunne

“What are you doing?” Ivan coldly asked as he exited the elevator, catching a glimpse of the medicine bottle in the woman’s hand. “Mr. Chavez!” The receptionist gasped and took a step back. Ivan quickly went to her and snatched the medicine bottle from her grasp. “Where did you get this? Who told you to throw it away? Answer me!” Victor had an international video conference earlier. During the meeting, he suffered a stomachache. He asked Ivan to bring the medicine he had kept in his office, but it was unexpectedly all used up.

Ivan called Lukas and asked him to bring some medicine. The latter never showed up, so Ivan decided to get the bottle himself. However, as soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he noticed that the receptionist was about to throw away the medicine Victor had usually taken.

The receptionist stuttered, “I…um… Rachel brought it here. I thought the drug may be poisonous, so I…” “So you decided to throw it away? What gives you the right to decide throwing away Mr. Sullivan’s things?” Ivan narrowed his eyes. “I… I…” The receptionist turned paler by the second, tears running down her cheeks.

Clenching the medicine bottle tightly in his hand, Ivan gritted his teeth and said, “I will inform Mr. Sullivan about this. And you… Prepare yourself for the worst. Surely you’ve got some explanation for this. Get out of here if you can’t justify your actions!” After saying that, Ivan turned around and took the elevator, heading straight to the 33rd floor. The receptionist’s face was grim, and she couldn’t stand still. She took a few steps back and fell to the floor after colliding with the trash bin.

When Ivan arrived at the 33rd floor, the meeting had just ended. He knocked on the door first before coming in. He then proceeded to pour some water for Victor, and handed him two pills. Victor didn’t get enough rest this week. He had to work overtime for two consecutive days after coming home from Switzerland. The stomachache seemed to worsen and his pallor wasn’t any better. He took the pills and swallowed them without drinking water. “Mr. Sullivan, it was Miss Bennet who brought this medicine,” Ivan said as he placed down the glass of water, glancing at his boss. “Rachel?”

She noticed he was dressed in a formal suit. “Are you here for business?” “No, I just happened to pass by.” Roger gently smiled at her. He hadn’t seen Rachel since she got hospitalized. He was unsure of how to face Rachel. Being the Jimenez family’s heir, he was too busy to visit her. Clara had told him that Rachel was fine now. When he saw her standing

If only I was…” “Hold it!” Rachel interjected, helplessly smiling, “Are we going to just stand here and blame ourselves for what happened?
